[PATCH] posix_cpu_timer: uninitialized variable use in posix_cpu_timer_get()
From: Alexey Dobriyan
Date: Thu Jul 07 2016 - 18:39:31 EST
Variable "now" seems to be genuinely used unintialized
if branch
if (CPUCLOCK_PERTHREAD(timer->it_clock)) {
is not taken and branch
if (unlikely(sighand == NULL)) {
is taken.
I don't know this code to judge what should be done, could someone
please look at it?
